Cycling the Bay Area & Stories from the Garden

From their new perch…

Yep, the new plant stand arrived, so my little avocados can finally rise from the floor, and get a new perspective on their surroundings.

Rise into the night young tree

Enjoying the overcast morning, warm on their perch

I decided that I would also add some color to my outdoor garden, so I took a nice walk to Ace Hardware in Piedmont and bought two 6-packs of Primroses. They are beautiful, and the weather today decided to cooperate in honor of their arrival.

The sun came out, and poured glorious warmth all over Oakland, it was a day fated for colorful flowers. Here they are all planted, and beginning their new life as the color center of my outdoor garden existence.

Beautiful Blue

The “little seed that could” is finally starting to grow some outward limbs, I guess that he likes his new perch, I will be uploading pictures soon, stay tuned!
